Want something to do this weekend?...Grab that camera!

The Golden Hour

Photographers know this moment. It occurs twice every day no matter if it's been raining or sunny. Long before photography, we called this time, "the golden hour." Even the early Renaissance masters knew that this was a magical time of day when the sun's colors were brilliant. 

The sky takes on a gradient rainbow and everything is bathed in a golden highlight. 

Grab your camera and head for the outdoors when you see the sun setting behind the horizon. Your pictures will turn out wonderful, but hurry...

 

...you only have a 30-45 minute window before all the magic is gone.
